(This is referring to the new FW changes coming soon)
Why not, is my question this is one feature that seems incredibly overlooked...?
::::For example:::
I'm in small Corp A we have talented group of guys and want to make our name known
I also play EVE and involved with a faction warfare corp..
I mention to my EVE corp that my Dust guys could fight for Gallente to help out..
Oh cool my EVE corp replies can you hit kamio and ikao systems..
Oh EVE corp ( that I'd like to impress) no sorry I can only hit those systems when CCP auto Qs me for that district...
Oh well by that time we will already have this system flipped thanks any ways you Dust guys are still worthless..
:(
Even if said district on Kamio is empty when Dust corps land if it benefits FW EVE corps I'm sure the squids will reach for help especially if taking Districts help system Influence and EVE pilots will recieve FW points for orbitals... This adds meaningfull EVE interaction and exciting meta..
If we are worried about thining out the player base, make selected districts 6v6 Dom or a surcharge for selecting an individual district or selecting your own district gives you less FW points.. etc etc
This could also help established Dust corps get their name in the EVE universe and a foot in the door of an alliance willing to help with PC...
Has this been brought up, and what does everyone think ? |

Why not with all your thoughtfull feedback I can't tell your reasoning.. you realize smaller matches could benefit smaller corps smaller corps can grow into larger corps..
If all you read was 6v6 let me put a disclaimer 6v6 could be select districts or even beginning systems then 16v16 at a certain percentage once say a system gets to 80% - 90%..
Edit: The fact is a lot of people have asked for 6v6 or 8v8 this would also benefit larger corps that don't always have the numbers on for large battles. .. |

So it takes how many battles to get to 16v16? Nope You dont see it in EVE even with 2man corps in FW so why should it be this for DUST corps?
Lol look up small complexes you see 1v1's all the time in FW in EVE, medium complexes you can see tons of 4v4 with a fleet of 3 we have went 3v6 on mediums many of times to control a complex which influences the system similar to Dust's districts. ..
so tell me again how you don't see it in EVE ? |

Way to completely miss the point
You have a 2man corp in FW but they dont restrict the plexes to 2v2 only because of a 2man corp
It could be a 30vs36 in a small plex
So why should we restrict the matches in DUST to 6v6 because of your small corp? when clearly the game can hold 16v16
Right and you completely missed my original point about the community being small and 6v6 only being an option, who says 16v16 can't be an option as well... just like i stated above...

However 6v6 is not a good idea. The balance of a planet hangs in Six people. Dear god talk about the 1%. Smaller battles would just mean that the stomps are harder. Not a whole lot resources to work with. By entering a vehicle you lost 16.5% of your infantry. No please, just team deploy. Smaller battles will allow larger corps to control more at once. Trust me it wouldn't work in favor of small corps. Even as an Option it's bad, and who controls what battle becomes 6v6?
Team deploy would be ideal... I'm just trying to throw something out there similar to complexes of EVE..
it's not "the planet depending on 6v6" its (just an example) say 8 districts on a planet 4 can be fought with a smaller 6v6 8v8 force and the other four can be fought with a bigger 16v16 force so really up 100+ (depending on district size) mercs could fight for one planet all at once or district by district..
All districts generated by CCP/automated depending on system status as they are now and complexes have been in EVE.. |

Except FW complexs restrict hull size, a form of gear restriction, and not how many players can get inside. Your 6v6 or 8v8 places an arbitrary limit on the number of players who can participate (the current 16v16 is due to lag issues and such), which is why people aren't liking it. Having more numbers is a valid tactic, and the only limit on how many you can deploy should be a software/hardware issue, and not a "this many, because I say so."
I understand that but being a rather small community and the fact that gladiator style matches have been teased in the past a lot of people have asked for smaller 6v6 or 8v8 matches and this kind of complex/district system would be a good place to start imo and I don't see how doing so is restricting anything as long as a 16v16 option/districtsis are still available.. ?
And If you had read my edit I added an option for gear restrictions which could still work for smaller matches and definitely benefit smaller or newer corps and give even new players a feeling of worth.. |

Also, with a shooter and one with a small community at that why give FW only one large 16v16 option ? With team deploy this will lead to only more bottle knecking of the good shooters in this community there is a lot of talent out there but not all of them have 25m skillpoints and a connection to get into MHPD or AE or **** EON for that matter.. FW needs to be a competitive avenue were all can take place adding more options can spread out the talent and grow the game in the long run..
